My Tracks

Follow my steps through Maryland’s Wildlife Management Areas

Words, pictures and a Google Map are great resources, but to jump to the next level of information, I will be embedding recorded “My Tracks” sessions into wildlife area pages whenever possible.

My Tracks is a Google product available through an application on Android phones that enables users to record GPS tracks and view live statistics – such as time, speed, distance, and elevation – while hiking, biking, running or participating in other outdoor activities. Once recorded, tracks can be shared, uploaded to Google Spreadsheets and visualized on Google My Maps.

All tracks shared on mdwildlife.com will be in map format. Clicking on a beginning point or end point of any track, will provide more detail on that particular trail. The screen shot below displays what information may typically be available through My Tracks.
